Come, let us build ourselves a boat with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves; otherwise we shall be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.

The Event

Created on 25 September, 2024, the tower was created stretching from Spawn lake up to some boats by getplayerhead.sh?hugoemmanuel421&16.png hugoemmanuel421, later continued by getplayerhead.sh?SiOtter&16.png SiOtter and getplayerhead.sh?bartek_kx&16.png bartek_kx up to Spawn's skydive plataform. The tower was created using hundreds of oak boats stacked on top of eachother, from the southeast corner of the spawn lake up to the sky limit. The boats were placed on Spawn's skydive platform, at y=253, before being whacked with a wooden sword with Knockback II, all falling into a tower.
